Synopsis

This example-rich exploration of both elementary probability and basic statistics places a strong emphasis on engineering and science applications. Coverage explores the treatment of data; probability; probability distributions; probability densities; sampling distributions; inferences concerning means; inferences concerning variances; inferences concerning proportions; nonparametric tests; curve fitting; analysis of variance; factorial experimentation; the statistical content of quality-improvement programs; and applications to reliability and life testing. For practicing engineers or anyone interested in probability and statistics.

From the Back Cover

This text is rich in exercises and examples, and explores both elementary probability and basic statistics, with an emphasis on engineering and science applications. Much of the data have been collected from the author's own consulting experience and from discussions with scientists and engineers about the use of statistics in their fields. In later chapters, the book emphasizes designed experiments, especially two-level factorial design.
